Art Report

Yes, I have colour art, with more to follow eventually, just have to stop worrying about the results and just do it for it is still in the experimental stage after all, but college is damping my enthusiasm for art at the moment, so I play World of Tanks and Minecraft to keep my spirits up, but there's only a month till its over, then I will be truly free and can stop having to put up with making a bad decision.

Hopefully the upcoming tournament over at *Bwarchtor will rekindle my creativity, with a new character who will be a departure from my soldier folks, of whom I could write reams and reams about with a story to tie it altogether if they were dropped into a full scale war, such as how Stannheim Torfan advocates aggressive tank tactics much to the chagrin of his (former) superiors and Arund's tank killing skills up close and personal with his pioneer training. This means they just don't apply well to single combat to be brief.

World of Tanks Report

I recently acquired the Tiger (P), I was throughly delighted by its performance, even when Match Maker makes it into smallfry, it can still chip away and support other heavies quite aptly due to the 200mm hull armour, although the turret has half the armour, it doesn't always get hit as the hull is an easier shot to go for, and tanks like the T29 and T32 with their invincivle turrets train us to go for the hull, working out in the Tiger (P)'s favour, plus I got a wickedly brilliant soundpack, so the engine snarls like a beast now rather than a vacuum cleaner.

Next to grab is the Panther, for I would eventually like the E-50 Standardpanzer, potentially for clan wars or a high end tank company (I should really give the regular ones a try, and I always get tanks with fun first, winning second) should I get into a clan. Critques be dammned on the forums, they don't always have much love for the E-50, but its performance on the field says otherwise in my eyes, just have to remind yourself its not for head-to-head fragfest match with an IS-7. Firepower (applied in the right place) and mobility (the ability to attack quickly, or fall back to meet a new threat to the base in time) win the day in my books.
